  • Please place your garbage in bags before you put it in your cans or carts. This helps prevent materials from blowing out of the can and also reduces odor in your container.
  • All carts are owned by Homewood Disposal. Serial numbers have been recorded and designated to each address. In the event you move out of the home, the cart must remain at the original address. Please do not put your address on your cart.

Homewood Disposal started in 1956 serving just the towns of Homewood and Flossmoor, Illinois. Over the decades, we’ve expanded and we now provide residential, commercial, and industrial waste services in over 80 local communities throughout Chicagoland and NW Indiana.

“My three year old son loves garbage trucks and usually watches from the window. Today we watched from the driveway and driver Ryan waved and talked to my son from the truck. It made his entire day. I can’t tell you how excited my son was!”
Tinley Park Resident

“Driver Mark has outstanding character, sons were outside selling lemonade and plants and the driver encouraged their business, true professionalism.”

Joe Aurelio, Aurelio's Pizza

“Our driver is amazing and always goes above and beyond. Happened to be looking out the window, and saw him get out of his truck to move the neighbor’s cans away from a car so he can dump them. He also picked up loose garbage that was scattered on the ground.”
